Question

My daughter woke up with open slits in the corners of her mouth. What is it?

They are sores like slits in the corners of her mouth. They are raised and cracked, red. She is 2 1/2. They havent started bothering her yet. Has any of you dealt with this and how did you treat it? I didn't wanna jump the gun with calling the Dr the next day, but I guess I should.
